I love this university. It is right by the Plaza, has a nice layout, and the landscaping is kept up very well. Everything is within walking or biking distance and all of my classes have been great besides the required Anchor classes (but I'm convinced it was bad because of the multiple teachers, not the subject matter). My classes have been challenging, but that's what I expect in uni and anyone who thinks differently is not prepared to dedicate the time and effort to higher education. I recently had a concussion and was unable to complete the spring semester, but my professors offered me incompletes in order to help me get back on track. One is even meeting me in the summer for a faux class WITHOUT PAY. She is doing it completely out of kindness and her love of teaching. I feel like this shows how dedicated the professors are at UMKC. I work two jobs on campus; they are eager to hire and help students. There are tons of resources on campus to help struggling students. I have met a handful of life-long friends here. Overall, my experience has been fabulous and I would recommend this campus to anyone in search of a college in KC.
